Created in the late 18th or early 19th century, this piece is housed in the prestigious Musee Guimet in Paris, France.

Utamaro's mastery shines through as he captures every intricate detail of the woman's features and her elegant coiffure.

This artwork transports viewers to the enchanting world of geishas and ukiyo-e (floating world) culture prevalent during Japan's Edo period. The print offers a glimpse into Yoshiwara, an infamous red-light district known for its entertainment establishments. It invites us to explore the allure and mystery that surrounded these women who were both admired and shrouded in secrecy. With its rich historical context and artistic brilliance, this woodblock print serves as a testament to Utamaro's contribution to Japanese art history.
